Communication record administration

Call and email summary administration for law firms

Calls and emails create matter information that may need to be logged in a consistent format before a firm can review its records and billing information. RemoteSkills can prepare factual summaries and enter them in LEAP or another authorised firm system under clear instructions, while the firm decides legal significance, billable time and fees.

Factual summaries, not legal interpretation

The administrator’s role is to turn an authorised call or email record into the factual fields and concise summary required by the firm. The worker should not infer legal significance, decide what advice was given or describe a conclusion that is not present in the source.

If the communication cannot be linked confidently to the correct matter, it should be returned to the supervising firm contact rather than placed on a guessed file.

A verified legal-administration workflow

RemoteSkills previously supplied one administrator to a law firm who summarised calls and emails in LEAP so the firm could maintain billing records. The former client remains anonymous. The firm retained legal judgement, client advice and billing decisions.

  • Use firm-authorised source communications only.
  • Apply a fixed factual summary structure.
  • Escalate uncertain matter references or meaning.
  • Leave time, fee and billing decisions to the firm.

Frequently asked questions

Can summaries be entered in LEAP?

Yes, where the firm authorises access and supplies its matter, field and summary conventions. The service is administrative and does not represent LEAP software support.

Does the administrator decide whether a call or email is billable?

No. The worker prepares the factual administrative record. The firm decides time entries, billable status, fees and client billing.

What does call and email summary administration cost?

Flexible support starts from £6 per hour. One dedicated part-time worker starts from £895 per month for four hours per day, Monday to Friday. Final pricing depends on volume, source format, systems and supervision.

RemoteSkills provides administrative support only. The law firm retains legal judgement, client advice, supervision, billing decisions and responsibility for every regulated or substantive legal activity.
